I came to Hendrix with the belief that students would have a voice. Senate talks a big game but it doesn't actually make any difference on campus. Emailing staff or contacting facilities is like pulling teeth. You're lucky if facilities doesn't just close your work order without looking at it. Complaints have been made about how the dining hall lacks options for vegan students and has shoddy hours. Also about cleaning up too early (aka some sports get out an hour before the dining hall closes, and there's very little, if any, food left when they get there). Also, I've seen students go to the provost two years in a row over the same class and awful teacher (who has a 1 star rate my professor rating and is downright hateful to students), and the area chair told the students that "the teacher in question worked very hard" and basically that they shouldn't complain. If you want your education, housing, and meals to matter to the staff of your college, go elsewhere.
While the school is great in academics, this school greatly lacks in everything else. As far as the school being genuinely concerned for your housing needs and other necessities you can forget about them. I pay $3500 a semester for my housing needs and wants to be filled: proper living area, clean bathrooms, and access to clean water is all I can ask for. In Miller you will find these ten fold because of yours Hendrix sends through their show pony building. Couch and Hardin, you can call the armpits of this campus an you can find almost all the athletes in Miller with football being the only sport outside of it. If you voice any concern about the living conditions—EVEN IF YOU ARE A STUDENT EMPLOYEE— the administration does not care, and it is very strong that the administration’s only is keeping the money they receive from students rather than trying to help their living situation. Right now.as we speak, Couch and Hardin are listening to LOUD beeping at wakes us all up at 7:30:,)
Hendrix pairs a rigorous academic experience with a tight knit community that made me feel right at home. The school places a premium on critical thinking, writing ability, and multidisciplinary, liberal arts education. Its Odyssey Program provided me with the tools and opportunities I needed pursue novel academic and professional development. The school did a terrific job of encouraging growth and nurturing my progress along the way. Hendrix’s faculty and staff are top tier professionals, but they are also deeply engaged in student interests and wellbeing. I had a terrific experience!
